@Individualati won't matter. She's still gonna get pummeled. They have to have someone to hate in order to make the race hu$tle work. If they accept her, they lose the narrative and lose money that props up and propagates the Race Baiter industrial complex.
No one hates Clark. I like Clark even though she isn't my favorite player. She seems very nice. We just couldn't stand her fanbase. Hopefully this problem will be fully removed.😊
Doesn't help that her boyfriend is reportedly a flaming liberal woke dem. I'm sure he has more than a little affect on what she thinks and says, at the end of the day.
LMAO. Abortion is not murder. So what’s the truth there genius. Why do we have 9 Supreme Court Justices? Of course people have their own truths. It gets conflated with opinion but it is their perspective. Has Jesus actual come and was crucified. Ask both Michael and Ben that question. Which is true? Care to retract your idiotic statement? From CC’s perspective, she’s recognized that her crazy level of fandom might just a little bit to do with living in a society with more white people. She never apologized for being white not insinuated anything negative. It’s people like you that bring about this hatred.
This is my truth - she’s Gen Z & they have their own vernacular, the depth of which they don’t truly understand. I remember when “bitchin’” was something very cool - wow,that’s a bitchin’ car! Today it’s about complaining - why are bitchin’ about what Caitlin Clark said? 😂😂😂
My niece and me will no longer support Clark. As a Catholic Irish/Italian as herself we were big fans but not after that b.s. She worked all by herself to get where she is with Parents, coaches,and teammates help. Not some fake privilege that only exists for others
Here is a glimpse as to why we are hated: "Western man towers over the rest of the world in ways so large as to be almost inexpressible. It's Western exploration, science, and conquest that have revealed the world to itself. Other races feel like subjects of Western power long after colonialism, imperialism, and slavery have disappeared. The charge of racism puzzles Whites who feel not hostility, but only baffled good will, because they don't grasp what it really means: humiliation. The White man presents an image of superiority even when he isn't conscious of it. And, superiority excites envy. Destroying White civilization is the inmost desire of the league of designated victims we call minorities." - Joseph Sobran - April 1997.
Trust me, YOU wont be missed. However, your niece may miss out being a standout athlete because of some relatively benign words Caitlin said. She’s an extremely accomplished athlete - she set the record of most points scored by EVERY college basketball player in history - men & women & much more. BTW, most super high level athletes are not the best spokespeople - take a good listen at Marshawn Lynch or Mike Tyson 😂
@@jasonjackson5696 Clark is an empty vessel. Typical corporate woman. She doesn't show any real opinions or perhaps she doesn't have any. Tyson wasn't Laurence Olivier, but unlike her, he was real. Also her being accomplished, that just kinda tells how worthless her achievements are. Children get more points than adults, because kids can't defend. As sport get more & more professional the scores tend to drop. That happened in soccer famously. Denmark beat France 17-1 in the early years of the sport. Nowadays you pretty much can't do 4 goals in a soccer game. Same with combat sports, during the first decades of boxing, a lot got knocked out cold in the 1st round. Nowadays nobody gets a pure KO loss during the first 3 rounds. She is not that good, it's just that everybody else is so bad.
Old school here... we used to call it "effort" not privilege . Every individual has the same chance in that dept. Dont be insulted,just know reality and be glad you had "effort".

When people like Shaq, Steph Curry & LeBron say she has changed the WNBA, is that any reason to be canceled or disgusted? Come little man, wise up.
I agree with Michael…”You become a product to your environment” with relationships to Caitlin Clark surrounding. Unfortunately, because she plays in a majority leftist liberal professional league, she will potentially become more liberal than she already is overtime. We pray for her and the propaganda she’s surrounded by🙏🏾
The problem is it will never an enough. Many people backed her through everything, now there aren’t going to have her back. The one’s that hated her will always hate her. That’s a fact
Well, I am a contradictive of that. I was raised around nothing but democrats. Bill Clinton converted me. I am now a proud conservative Republican. Have been since Bill Clinton digregated our White House.
For the love of God can we please stop making every single thing about race! You are either a great athlete or you aren't. I'm sure the small crowd that actually watches the WNBA doesn't care what color you are. Just dribble the ball and stop being political.
Exactly, I don’t know why that’s such a hard fucking concept. Like look at football ffs Some of the greatest African players 2 included who won ballondors, 1 who won the World Cup, 2 who won the culprits etc. George weah, Samuel eto, N’golo Kante, Didier drogba, Yaya Toure, Osimhen etc compared to Womens football. If you’re not good at a sport it’s simple you’re not good, not cause of disadvantages, your race, or the supposed privilege of others.
She's clearly been gaslighted into feeling guilty for being the first breakout star of the WNBA despite it being around since the late 90's and the butt of sports jokes till Caitlin arrived.
@@ronkali5365 yes the light didn't shine cos they suck... Nobody wants to watch a bunch of women missing layups and then complaining about their pay for the rest of their time...
Bird would often repeat the joke "don't put a white dude on me it's disrespectful". But he'd know better than to preach about white privilege, he had none, not a penny more than Magic Johnson who recognized they both came from a relatively poor background.
No she didnt. Why people always take the extremes instead of grounded takes? She did sold out her fanbase but as long as her game entertains people will tune in.

Being wronged by a group of people with an ideology does not automatically mean that you will not agree with them. CC is for-sure a victim of anti-white racism, but she's probably also a feminist that unquestioningly buys the CRT that her generation is steeped in. She's only 22, after all. Hopefully she pays attention to how she is being treated and by whom, and comes to some common sense conclusions about what is right and what is wrong as she matures. Don't judge her too quickly yet.
Great post. But you at least can understand why some are disappointed. Right? The majority defending her in thos case cant even contemplate how anyone can be critical of what she did.
@Refreshment01 Oh definitely. I'm disappointed too, but definitely not surprised. I guess I can defend her on the one hand and that she's young and probably ignorant (maybe just wants to play ball) but also exceptionally talented, so she may end up like a Tulsi Gabbard type if she really starts thinking about what she thinks, but I can criticize her on the other hand because she appears to be bought into a worldview that is fundamentally untrue.
@@levigoodwin3522 Fair view 👍 But i have a question independent of Clark. Do people think that a 22 year old its immature? Is this a recent development? At that age i had a pretty decent grasp of morality & how power dynamics work. So to think that a person is naivily walking through life at aye 22 has been a revelation to me.
@@Refreshment01 Well, I don't think there's a answer to that question that works for all groups. I think that generally, less is being expected of young adults in the US than in previous generations. Speaking for myself, I used to think of myself as extremely mature early in adulthood (moved out and self-sustaining since age 17, and I am currently 36). However, as life progressed past high school, I realized that I was not very emotionally mature as I began to notice problems arise from that immaturity. At 36 now with perspective, I realize that I was pretty immature in all aspects of life at 22, but I had inherited a good frame of reference from my parents, including a good work ethic, which kept me from destroying my life until I did gain that really solid mature perspective on life in my mid/late twenties. Personally, I generally assume people that are 22 are immature and they just don't know it, but I really like to get to know an individual person before I make that judgement call about them.
Conservatives don't "own" Caitlin Clark. At her age I was radically liberal. Most young adults lean more left than they do later. We should stop applying litmus tests to athletes; it will ruin the enjoyment of sports for most of us.
I thank CC has a disingenuous fanbase. Now we'll see evidence that her skillset is not what helped the wnba gain interest. Its her race.. just like when Jeremy Lin had that hotstreak.. his race played a major role. Not sure why so many people choose dishonesty to push their narrative.
They set her up, right down to putting her in peril of offending her interviewer. And I'm guessing she was being interviewed in NYC, the Rome of the West ("when in Rome..."). BTW, for the same reasons, the Church should've never been HQ'd in Rome.
I can't help but wonder why she done this? The only thing I can think of is she doesn't want to be beat up on the basketball court every time she plays! So this feels like self-preservation at this point!
Idk if I was Caitlin, play a couple years, make some cash, then walk away. You know it’s a toxic environment when everyone is hating on you, jealous of you.
In the space of one week Clark has proven that not only is she a genuine baller, but she also has bigger balls than all the keyboard warriors and she is not afraid to speak her mind. By the way, there is nothing wrong with acknowledging past WNBA black stars, just as there is nothing wrong with acknowledging past NBA black stars like Dr J, Dominique Wilkins and Michael Jordan. To think otherwise is plain stupid.
Lol y'all upset because she spoke the truth so don't come for her for speaking facts ..white skin does have privileges then any other skin color or race,...so be honest with yourselves
Got it wrong. She is an entrepreneur and capitalist and catholic young 22 year old. She'll play one more year WNBA. Go to woman's PGA. Sell- endorse clothes, shoes, equipment. Promote golfing to young and older females. Establish CC Golf and Basketball summer camps, tournaments. (Camps run by her WNBA good friends) In golf it's individual play, so she will not have to put up with left/right media salad. Men go to the point of fighting. Women destroy reputation. There's envy and jealously enough for everyone. WNBA is just entertainment. That's it.
Her boyfriend is very Liberal. She has been Liberal. You conservatives assumed you knew her and rallied around what you wanted her to be. You rallied around her talent AND perceived politics. So much of the support was for a “conservative white woman” in a majority “black liberal league”. That’s why you hate the WNBA and love her. But you’re finding out she was with the “Black Liberals” the whole time 😂😂😂. Will you still support her? Time will tell. Were you supporting her talent, politics or a mixture of both? I’d like to hear your thoughts.
I think Micheal hit the nail on the head here. I was disappointed but not surprised in the least. She has to get dressed in the same locker room, eat at the same lunch table, stay on the same hotels, travel on the same bus/plane and workout and play in a woke environment 24/7. Of course, she was going to slowly appear more liberal and woke. I think it was more so her realizing she doesn’t want to spend her entire career fighting and looking over her shoulder from her own peers and colleagues in the work WNBA. She made a business decision to come out and fall in line.
WHO CARES? Why is it so necessary to make a whole vlog? Tatum did the same thing. 🙄 Whatever she believes DOES NOT gives any one of us a discount on our insurance, rent, groceries, etc., so stop with this mess already.
I had a lot of respect for Caitlin and how she pulled through the competition to reach her level, now, I've canceled all support for her and will not praise any of her achievements.
I live in the Seattle area. It is predominantly (by quite a bit) liberal. I worked in a hospital for 2 decades and was surrounded by libs and 'Woke' people everyday. And guess what. It did not affect me one iota. I have always been staunchly conservative and never bent the knee for even a second even when surrounded by liberals. Caitlin could have done that too, but she didn't. Thus I have to assume she has been a closet Woke person. Now she will have to deal with the consequences of her actions as her fans turn away (they didn't love her just for her basketball skills). And no, liberals will not love her all the more now. Liberals are not sympathetic and they still despise her now more than she can imagine. Now that she has given in and is damaged goods they will ask (demand) even more from her. Much, much more. Just watch. CC is going to be a very sorry and unhappy young woman very soon. Actions and words have consequences. Coming at her like a cyclone on steroids, right away. The roof is coming off the house of sticks.
I never acclimated to my environment, if my friends are all thinking one way if I didn't think that way, there's nothing anyone is going to do to persuade me if I know I'm right
I will still watch her and the fever next year. she is a tremendous woman, with her charity & good will. she speaks highly of anyone she is around, only 22 just out of College and her first year as a pro player who is constantly sh!t on in the WNBA they even denied her wanting to give spot bonus for the teams they play against because of all the revenue she brings to all the games and they said NO, but yet she still smiles through it all. She will never please everyone. I'm chalking this up to bad PR and she should fire her agent.
Seriously, does it really matter what she says? It is her playing ability and talent that everybody is drawn to and she has proven herself to be one of the best ever by setting records and filling venues. This audience is primarily conservative and here you are doing the thing you despise about liberals - playing canceled culture. Get a grip, she’s fairly benign and only 22.
Does it matter? Yes. Is he playing cancel culture games on her? No. She did that by towing the line and licking the boots. She's 22? Yeah, meaning we have no reason to think she has any real experience outside of dribbling a ball. She could've just accepted her award with grace but chose to be a part of the liberal nonsense granfalloon so it's fair game to mock her.
The fact that it matters to you about an athlete you don’t know & obviously have no respect for her proven athletic prowess is pathetic. At least you understood my point about her being 22 & her limited world view. Incidentally, how mature were you at 22? You can sit in relative anonymity, disparage & mock to your heart’s content about something that has absolutely nothing to do with her accomplishments if you need to fill your hatred for people who have a different opinion or life view than you. Just note, that makes you much less of a person than Caitlin Clark & most everyone else …. By the way, how she accepted the 1 in a million award, is her decision alone & quite frankly, she’s showing a bit of grace towards the other players. Maybe you should try thinking for yourself for a change & not be influenced by others ….

Good you won't be missed
SHE HAS NO SELF RESPECT
More than you
I agree with Michael…”You become a product to your environment” with relationships to Caitlin Clark surrounding. Unfortunately, because she plays in a majority leftist liberal professional league, she will potentially become more liberal than she already is overtime. We pray for her and the propaganda she’s surrounded by🙏🏾
She caved in .. Went to a Catholic HS . Lost her Catholic faith . if she ever had it .
Go woke go broke cya round 😮
She has developed "Stockholm Syndrome" toward the folks who abuse her. It's very sad.
Unfortunately because she has bowed to the liberal agenda my short lived interest in the WNBA has waned.
The problem is it will never an enough. Many people backed her through everything, now there aren’t going to have her back. The one’s that hated her will always hate her. That’s a fact
Please say it ain't so.....😢 I just lost respect for her. Not all but alot..
Who cares who you respect?
College and WNBA has ruined her.
Says the illiterate
They got to her. Jesuit educated? Now I understand.
She was raised Catholic. See my post.
Yep.
@@deborahcameron6180 That obviously influenced her confusion.
She is not Jesuit educated and she went to U of Iowa, a very liberal school
Caitlin probably had to go woke Left to please her sponsors, but she just lost half of her fans...
She may not be overt with it yet, but talking like that, it's only a matter of time before she is.
Well, I am a contradictive of that. I was raised around nothing but democrats. Bill Clinton converted me. I am now a proud conservative Republican. Have been since Bill Clinton digregated our White House.
Ah yes, the unsung black heroes of a major basketball league. What a savi--I mean hero for bringing her own truth to light.
Supplicating to people never makes them respect you.
From HERO to ZERO !!!
Says you the buffoon
I find this funny that people thought she was going to be any different. She's a basketball female American player.
For the love of God can we please stop making every single thing about race! You are either a great athlete or you aren't. I'm sure the small crowd that actually watches the WNBA doesn't care what color you are. Just dribble the ball and stop being political.
Exactly, I don’t know why that’s such a hard fucking concept. Like look at football ffs Some of the greatest African players 2 included who won ballondors, 1 who won the World Cup, 2 who won the culprits etc. George weah, Samuel eto, N’golo Kante, Didier drogba, Yaya Toure, Osimhen etc compared to Womens football. If you’re not good at a sport it’s simple you’re not good, not cause of disadvantages, your race, or the supposed privilege of others.
And Clark did that though out all the season. What happened now?
I cheered and watched because she didn’t contribute to the garbage… I won’t be watching or cheering and more.
Exactly i was her fan because shes a great player and person of the court but i wont watch her anymore
She's clearly been gaslighted into feeling guilty for being the first breakout star of the WNBA despite it being around since the late 90's and the butt of sports jokes till Caitlin arrived.
You just proved her point..There were stars before her that didn't get the light shine on them like she's getting now
@@ronkali5365 Oh yeah??? Name one.
@@ronkali5365 yes the light didn't shine cos they suck... Nobody wants to watch a bunch of women missing layups and then complaining about their pay for the rest of their time...
@@cahill22 Sherly, dawn, i can go on and on
@@ronkali5365 Never heard of them and I'm confident in saying I'm far from the only one.
Larry Bird said it best “I don’t give a shit !”
Bird would often repeat the joke "don't put a white dude on me it's disrespectful". But he'd know better than to preach about white privilege, he had none, not a penny more than Magic Johnson who recognized they both came from a relatively poor background.
She now lost all the fans that made her special that gave them the money now she no better than the rest of them
No she didnt. Why people always take the extremes instead of grounded takes? She did sold out her fanbase but as long as her game entertains people will tune in.
@Refreshment01 I didn't tune in because basketball I thought it would be a nonwoke entertainments so hard to find anymore
I’ve lost all respect for her
Heartbreaking. We needed her to be a role model for our daughters. 💔😢
So far, she's still better than Cardi B. For now at least......
Don't look to celebrities to be role models for your children.
@@Wilma__Dikfit Except Brittany Griner....
Here is a glimpse as to why we are hated:
"Western man towers over the rest of the world in ways so large as to be almost inexpressible.
It's Western exploration, science, and conquest that have revealed the world to itself. Other races feel like subjects of Western power long after colonialism, imperialism, and slavery have disappeared. The charge of racism puzzles Whites who feel not hostility, but only baffled good will, because they don't grasp what it really means: humiliation. The White man presents an image of superiority even when he isn't conscious of it. And, superiority excites envy. Destroying White civilization is the inmost desire of the league of designated victims we call minorities."
- Joseph Sobran - April 1997.
On one hand Clark is awesome. But how white parents would feel about Clark instilling white guilt on her daughters or sons?
CONGRATS CAITLIN, YOU SAVED AND KILLED THE LEAGUE IN LESS THAN A YEAR!
She must be hanging out with Lebron's Communist ass
Sad to see her go WOKE! I think you’ll see a huge drop in her popularity, people loved her breath of fresh air without any leftist bias.
Being wronged by a group of people with an ideology does not automatically mean that you will not agree with them. CC is for-sure a victim of anti-white racism, but she's probably also a feminist that unquestioningly buys the CRT that her generation is steeped in. She's only 22, after all. Hopefully she pays attention to how she is being treated and by whom, and comes to some common sense conclusions about what is right and what is wrong as she matures. Don't judge her too quickly yet.
Great post. But you at least can understand why some are disappointed. Right? The majority defending her in thos case cant even contemplate how anyone can be critical of what she did.
@Refreshment01 Oh definitely. I'm disappointed too, but definitely not surprised. I guess I can defend her on the one hand and that she's young and probably ignorant (maybe just wants to play ball) but also exceptionally talented, so she may end up like a Tulsi Gabbard type if she really starts thinking about what she thinks, but I can criticize her on the other hand because she appears to be bought into a worldview that is fundamentally untrue.
@@levigoodwin3522 Fair view 👍 But i have a question independent of Clark. Do people think that a 22 year old its immature? Is this a recent development? At that age i had a pretty decent grasp of morality & how power dynamics work. So to think that a person is naivily walking through life at aye 22 has been a revelation to me.
@@Refreshment01 Well, I don't think there's a answer to that question that works for all groups. I think that generally, less is being expected of young adults in the US than in previous generations. Speaking for myself, I used to think of myself as extremely mature early in adulthood (moved out and self-sustaining since age 17, and I am currently 36). However, as life progressed past high school, I realized that I was not very emotionally mature as I began to notice problems arise from that immaturity. At 36 now with perspective, I realize that I was pretty immature in all aspects of life at 22, but I had inherited a good frame of reference from my parents, including a good work ethic, which kept me from destroying my life until I did gain that really solid mature perspective on life in my mid/late twenties. Personally, I generally assume people that are 22 are immature and they just don't know it, but I really like to get to know an individual person before I make that judgement call about them.
At this point, shes damned if she does;damned if she doesn't.
Lol she ruined it
Conservatives don't "own" Caitlin Clark. At her age I was radically liberal. Most young adults lean more left than they do
later. We should stop applying litmus tests to athletes; it will ruin the enjoyment of sports for most of us.
I thank CC has a disingenuous fanbase. Now we'll see evidence that her skillset is not what helped the wnba gain interest. Its her race.. just like when Jeremy Lin had that hotstreak.. his race played a major role.
Not sure why so many people choose dishonesty to push their narrative.
“My Truth” is an instant turn off for most people.
Could she string anymore lib buzz words into one sentence 😂😂
1 Corinthians 15:33
Be not deceived: Evil companionships corrupt good morals.
Once you give them an inch, they're gonna demand a mile.
They set her up, right down to putting her in peril of offending her interviewer. And I'm guessing she was being interviewed in NYC, the Rome of the West ("when in Rome...").
BTW, for the same reasons, the Church should've never been HQ'd in Rome.
Disappointing but not surprising. It was never going to last. They will always hate you. They just won’t be as vocal. Relative, not absolute
I can't help but wonder why she done this? The only thing I can think of is she doesn't want to be beat up on the basketball court every time she plays! So this feels like self-preservation at this point!
This is very disappointing.
CUT GOVERNMENT SPENDING
sooooo disappointed 😞🤮
Her bring in a crowd is now over
What made her different was she wasn't woke amd was a great person now ahe wwmt woke and im done watching her
Who cares?
Two months ago, anime overtook all sports viewership in the U.S., meaning more Americans watch anime than sports.
Really??
RIP WNBA
Idk if I was Caitlin, play a couple years, make some cash, then walk away. You know it’s a toxic environment when everyone is hating on you, jealous of you.
Get over it. Let her play ball and get off the political crap.
Geno was right about the wrong things.
Meh. Who cares? WBA will return the oblivion they have earned.
Not really surprised. She went to college after all
In the space of one week Clark has proven that not only is she a genuine baller, but she also has bigger balls than all the keyboard warriors and she is not afraid to speak her mind.
By the way, there is nothing wrong with acknowledging past WNBA black stars, just as there is nothing wrong with acknowledging past NBA black stars like Dr J, Dominique Wilkins and Michael Jordan. To think otherwise is plain stupid.
Honest question: Do you think white privilege exists in 2024 within pro basketball , men’s or women’s ?
What is your need to label people?
Heard the boyfriend is major woke
This deserves way more views!
Lol y'all upset because she spoke the truth so don't come for her for speaking facts ..white skin does have privileges then any other skin color or race,...so be honest with yourselves
i hate woke stuff. but i feel like this is a bit woke but not super woke like everyone is saying
She is amazing in her sport. Perhaps watch a game or two to see she is pure talent and gracious. Yet often targeted in a manner which is unacceptable.
this is why we should be supporting sports that dont have players who try to hurt our culture like baseball, tennis, golf, lacrosse, hockey, etc
If you are pinning your hopes of delivering conservatism on a 22 year old basketball player you may have bigger problems than you realize.
Individuals old enough to be her father and they’re crying about her opinions. It’s rather sad when you think about it.
She's a Lib. Hopefully conservatives cease adoring her. Let the WNBA go back to oblivion.
She's like the rest 🤣🤣🤣
My gawd already. Caitlin is NOT a politician and has never spoken about politics.
I prefer volleyball and softball over WNBA. I actually loved going to volleyball games
This was a DEI award. It should have gone to Scottie Scheffler.
Nah money is what changes politicians.vThey stay long enough and they will be corrupted. 100% the reason congress needs term limits
Got it wrong. She is an entrepreneur and capitalist and catholic young 22 year old.
She'll play one more year WNBA.
Go to woman's PGA. Sell- endorse clothes, shoes, equipment.
Promote golfing to young and older females.
Establish CC Golf and Basketball summer camps, tournaments.
(Camps run by her WNBA good friends)
In golf it's individual play, so she will not have to put up with left/right media salad.
Men go to the point of fighting. Women destroy reputation.
There's envy and jealously enough for everyone.
WNBA is just entertainment. That's it.
Her boyfriend is very Liberal. She has been Liberal. You conservatives assumed you knew her and rallied around what you wanted her to be. You rallied around her talent AND perceived politics. So much of the support was for a “conservative white woman” in a majority “black liberal league”. That’s why you hate the WNBA and love her. But you’re finding out she was with the “Black Liberals” the whole time 😂😂😂. Will you still support her? Time will tell. Were you supporting her talent, politics or a mixture of both? I’d like to hear your thoughts.
I think Micheal hit the nail on the head here. I was disappointed but not surprised in the least. She has to get dressed in the same locker room, eat at the same lunch table, stay on the same hotels, travel on the same bus/plane and workout and play in a woke environment 24/7. Of course, she was going to slowly appear more liberal and woke. I think it was more so her realizing she doesn’t want to spend her entire career fighting and looking over her shoulder from her own peers and colleagues in the work WNBA. She made a business decision to come out and fall in line.
She just lost half her fan base. Guaranteed
WHO CARES? Why is it so necessary to make a whole vlog? Tatum did the same thing. 🙄
Whatever she believes DOES NOT gives any one of us a discount on our insurance, rent, groceries, etc., so stop with this mess already.
I had a lot of respect for Caitlin and how she pulled through the competition to reach her level, now, I've canceled all support for her and will not praise any of her achievements.
Enjoyed watching her play at Iowa and even watched her in the WNBA a few times. I’m completely done with her. She’s a HUGE disappointment.
I live in the Seattle area. It is predominantly (by quite a bit) liberal. I worked in a hospital for 2 decades and was surrounded by libs and 'Woke' people everyday. And guess what. It did not affect me one iota. I have always been staunchly conservative and never bent the knee for even a second even when surrounded by liberals. Caitlin could have done that too, but she didn't. Thus I have to assume she has been a closet Woke person. Now she will have to deal with the consequences of her actions as her fans turn away (they didn't love her just for her basketball skills). And no, liberals will not love her all the more now. Liberals are not sympathetic and they still despise her now more than she can imagine. Now that she has given in and is damaged goods they will ask (demand) even more from her. Much, much more. Just watch. CC is going to be a very sorry and unhappy young woman very soon. Actions and words have consequences. Coming at her like a cyclone on steroids, right away. The roof is coming off the house of sticks.
I never acclimated to my environment, if my friends are all thinking one way if I didn't think that way, there's nothing anyone is going to do to persuade me if I know I'm right
Imagine Tiger Woods saying: I would like to pay tribute to all the white people that built this sport.
I will still watch her and the fever next year. she is a tremendous woman, with her charity & good will. she speaks highly of anyone she is around, only 22 just out of College and her first year as a pro player who is constantly sh!t on in the WNBA they even denied her wanting to give spot bonus for the teams they play against because of all the revenue she brings to all the games and they said NO, but yet she still smiles through it all. She will never please everyone. I'm chalking this up to bad PR and she should fire her agent.
She can say goodbye to all the WNBA ratings. It’s going to be the same as the NFL.
There is no “my” truth. There is only truth.
Seriously, does it really matter what she says? It is her playing ability and talent that everybody is drawn to and she has proven herself to be one of the best ever by setting records and filling venues.
This audience is primarily conservative and here you are doing the thing you despise about liberals - playing canceled culture.
Get a grip, she’s fairly benign and only 22.
Does it matter? Yes.
Is he playing cancel culture games on her? No. She did that by towing the line and licking the boots.
She's 22? Yeah, meaning we have no reason to think she has any real experience outside of dribbling a ball.
She could've just accepted her award with grace but chose to be a part of the liberal nonsense granfalloon so it's fair game to mock her.
The fact that it matters to you about an athlete you don’t know & obviously have no respect for her proven athletic prowess is pathetic.
At least you understood my point about her being 22 & her limited world view. Incidentally, how mature were you at 22?
You can sit in relative anonymity, disparage & mock to your heart’s content about something that has absolutely nothing to do with her accomplishments if you need to fill your hatred for people who have a different opinion or life view than you. Just note, that makes you much less of a person than Caitlin Clark & most everyone else ….
By the way, how she accepted the 1 in a million award, is her decision alone & quite frankly, she’s showing a bit of grace towards the other players.
Maybe you should try thinking for yourself for a change & not be influenced by others ….
